He prayed for the post, and the housekeeper looked at him several times before leading him inside.

Ruan Guotao and Zhong Hongrui greeted the guests at the door of the main house, and suddenly saw Ruan Yuqiu approaching, the expressions on their faces froze for a moment.

They didn't even think about letting Ruan Yuqiu come over, Zhong Hongrui's family is here, what does it look like for him to come over?Let others gossip?

But Zhong You told them that if Ruan Yuqiu couldn't come, wouldn't others gossip?On the contrary, they will speak more fiercely.This was a serious public banquet for the Ruan family, but they didn't even have the qualifications to come if they had children in wedlock. Instead, others would say that Zhong Hongrui had no tolerance for others, and that Ruan Guotao treated his wife's children harshly, so he didn't get a good reputation anyway.

It's better to let him come and show everyone that his Ruan family is upright and has never treated anyone badly. She, Zhong Hongrui, has a clear conscience. She has been wronged for so many years, but she is still willing to accept other people's children generously. As for the dirty rumors before, that is There is unspeakable concealment, but there is suffering that cannot be expressed.

As soon as these words came out, Zhong Hongrui thought for a moment, and then tried to persuade him. Although Ruan Guotao was still a little reluctant, he couldn't stand the persuasion, so he had to agree.

The promise is yes, but at this moment, seeing Ruan Yuqiu in formal attire, standing neatly in front of him, he remembered the cruel words he said at Jiang's house last time, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and turned away with a cold snort Head, half a good face did not give.

Ruan Yuqiu didn't care either.

On the contrary, Zhong Hongrui took a step forward, and said gently to him: "Xiao Qiu is here, long time no see."

The woman in front of her had exquisite makeup and a smile on her face, but her eyes were not as good as her eyes.

Ruan Yuqiu hooked the corners of his lips: "Yes."

"I'll still come and walk around often in the future. There are a lot of people today, so it's not convenient to entertain you." She brushed the broken hair by her ears, and smiled slowly, "You don't mind, just treat this as your own home."

The hostess's posture is quite full.

Ruan Yuqiu responded.

He was so knowledgeable that the smile on Zhong Hongrui's face finally became real. She called Zhong You over and asked him to take Ruan Yuqiu to a seat.

Zhong You smiled brightly as soon as he came up, and he didn't stop talking after saying hello, saying how busy they are entertaining guests, who will be here today, Ruan Yuqiu went in his left ear and out of his right ear, and was brought to the dining table by him .

Guest table.

It's not even the top table.

Zhong You explained with a smile that the table had been arranged half a month ago, but he came over suddenly, and there were too many guests, so it was difficult to move, would you mind if you asked him?

Ruan Yuqiu shook his head, said "it's okay", then pulled out the chair and sat down, Zhong You left with satisfaction.

Not only did he not mind the table position, but he also acted as if he hadn't noticed the frequent strange looks from the relatives of the Ruan family at the main table and other guests in the venue.

Later, Mr. Ruan will cut the birthday cake here. The half-person-high cake has already been set up. The stage is decorated with various birthday fireworks and congratulatory couplets. There is a microphone in the middle for the birthday star himself and his relatives to deliver speeches.

Mr. Ruan was superstitious and asked the banquet to start at 1:[-] a.m. for the sake of auspiciousness, even if it started [-] minute earlier.

At this time, there was still a quarter of an hour before leaving the venue, the guests were almost all there, the seats in the room were almost full, and the guests were chatting and laughing happily, waiting secretly.

Ruan Yuqiu didn't eat snacks or drink, no one came to talk to him, and he didn't talk to others, just sat quietly, occasionally looking at his phone to pass the time.

The Internet is full of news about Zhong You now, saying that he is a winner in life, has a high starting point for the second generation of stars, and has a good family background and good character. The crew of "Sunset" has picked up a treasure. The comeback debut of a generation of national goddesses is definitely another big production that has not been broadcast before.

Such remarks emerge in endlessly, and they all praise Zhong You, saying that he will definitely go to the cinema to support "Sunset".Ruan Yuqiu went to follow the official movie blog, but there was still no response from the official.

Wu Qing hadn't contacted him yet, so he wasn't in a hurry.The director team will not fail to understand Zhong You's methods, but Gong Quan still did not give a definite answer, indicating that he doesn't care too much. He is Xu Yingyun's student, has strength and arrogance, and is not short of enthusiasm. Role matching will still be used as the first criterion for casting.

Ruan Yuqiu lowered his head and browsed the page at a glance. After a while, he suddenly heard a commotion in front of him.

The guests got up and left the table one after another, rushing towards the door.

At first, he thought it was He Shou who started, but he looked at his phone, and when it was eight o'clock, he also looked up suspiciously.

At the gate of the main house, Ruan Guotao's family were all smiling and complimented loudly. Guests from all walks of life greeted them, but they didn't dare to get too close, they only surrounded the outer circle, and the person in the middle was Jiang Qi. .

Ruan Yuqiu's heart skipped a beat.

He hasn't seen him for a long time.

It's been a month.

Ruan Yuqiu looked at the tall and straight figure of Jiang Qi not far away. During this month, he tried to avoid thinking of him and avoiding any news related to him. Once there is such a sign, the words of the system will forcefully appear in his mind.

He kept admonishing himself, persuading himself, over and over again.

From the looks of it now, the effect was not bad, his heart was only disturbed for a moment, and he was able to calm down.

It's just a task, don't think too much, it can be done.

Jiang Qi's assistant's annual salary of tens of millions is not worth it. He is the one who entertains on such occasions, and Jiang Qi himself just needs to stand quietly by the side, open his mouth occasionally, and deal with it.

Ruan Yuqiu saw that there was no expression on his face at first, but later Mr. Ruan came out with great fanfare, getting close to him and being overly enthusiastic, his eyebrows frowned.

The assistant immediately stepped forward to block them, keeping them at a more than normal social distance. Jiang Qi didn't even bother to deal with it. He raised his jaw slightly and turned his eyes, as if he was looking for something.

A few seconds later, he confronted Ruan Yuqiu.

Looking over with indifferent black eyes, Ruan Yuqiu paused in his heart, without showing any signs of it, and smiled at him with raised lips.

But Jiang Qi has always been immune to his smile, he turned his head away without taking a second look, and Ruan Yuqiu didn't care if he didn't get a response, as expected.

What surprised him was that after a while, Jiang Qi walked towards him.

He didn't know what he said to Ruan Guotao. The expressions of the family were a little frozen, and they laughed a few times. Of course Jiang didn't care about them. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he stood at Ruan Yuqiu's table.

The guests beside Ruan Yuqiu stayed for two seconds, and then gave up their seats with great insight.

Until Jiang Qi took a seat beside him, surrounded by an atmosphere that cannot be ignored, Ruan Yuqiu was still staring at him in a daze.

What do you mean?

Suddenly appearing at this kind of small banquet, instead of going to the VIP table, sitting at such a guest table like him, is like——

Ruan Yuqiu was stunned, the thought of "it seems to be aimed at him" flashed and was rejected, he calmed down, and asked in a low voice: "Why are you here?"

Jiang Qi sat upright, without turning his body sideways, his black eyes glanced down at him, and then he scored another point, which landed on the wine glass in his hand.

"Have you been drinking?" The voice was low and thick, and the answer was irrelevant.

Ruan Yuqiu's finger moved lightly and touched the wall of the goblet, the back of his finger felt cool, he subconsciously replied: "No."

"En." Jiang Qi uttered a syllable in his throat, but he couldn't hear any emotion.

Ruan Yuqiu didn't know why he asked this right away, maybe he was frightened by his drunkenness last time, but this wasn't his point, he reminded again: "You haven't answered the question just now, what's wrong today? Will come here?"

I don't know if it's his illusion, but when he heard him asking again, Jiang Qi's expression seemed to pause, and then he answered in a deep voice: "My mother asked me to keep an eye on you."

Ruan Yuqiu was surprised for a moment, and then understood: "Oh..."

It turned out to be Mother Jiang, probably because she heard that he was coming to Ruan's house, and she was afraid that he would be bullied.

A warm feeling rose in his heart, he turned his body slightly to Jiang Qi, and lowered his voice: "Thank you Aunt Jiang, please let her rest assured, I will be fine."

Did Jiang not speak or move.

At this time, Ruan Guotao and the others had already made arrangements. Mr. Ruan was auspicious because of Jiang Qi's sudden arrival, but his interest was obviously higher.

He first thanked many guests for coming to congratulate him on his birthday, emphasizing Jiang Qi's uninterrupted presence, and then began to recall the past, talking about the glorious history of his Ruan family, as if the Ruan family was the most famous and most famous in the city. An innocent family, almost half an hour passed before he finally started cutting birthday cakes.

Cutting birthday cakes is just a ceremony, and does not actually share the cake. While he was cutting, the guests stood up and applauded.

Then he came down and took the first seat, and his son and grandchildren took the stage to speak.

The Ruan family's family background is not very big, and the ostentation is full of upside down. All the males in the direct line have to speak, and the content is similar, first birthday and then bragging.

Ruan Guotao smiled brightly and talked about the Ruan family's ups and downs over the years. Zhong Rui mainly talked about the business development of the Ruan family. Generally speaking, the situation is very good and will surely flourish in the future. Zhong You is thanking this and that, so that everyone Looking forward to his future development.

Ruan Yuqiu listened with his chin propped up for a long time, full of nonsense, he fell asleep, and the guests around him were not much better, they all smiled and applauded based on muscle memory, but they were really not interested.

Who likes to listen to his Ruan family's constant bragging and self-promotion, everyone knows what it is really like, it is extremely boring, there is nothing new and exciting.

Ruan Yuqiu also felt the same way, so when Zhong You was about to finish speaking, his hands were put down from the edge of the table.

But before his body left the chair, he just moved his legs, and his dangling wrist was immediately grabbed by someone suddenly.

Ruan Yuqiu looked sideways at Jiang Qi, then lowered his head to look at the wrist completely grasped by the big hand, and whispered: "...What are you doing?"

Jiang Qi never took the initiative to touch him. The first time he met him, he wanted to cut off his hand.

Ruan Yuqiu didn't know why he grabbed him suddenly, but he must have not checked for a while, and he would let go immediately when he reacted, and maybe he would wipe it off with a tissue in disgust.

But this time he guessed completely wrong.

Not only did Jiang not let go, his palms were dry, and he pressed against Ruan Yuqiu's thin and warm wrist, motionless, but instead asked him: "What are you going to do?"

Ruan Yuqiu paused, his hand moved slightly, but he didn't break free, he was silent for a few seconds, and said in a low voice: "I want to go up and say a few words."

Did Jiang not speak, his brows were slightly frowned, as if he didn't agree.

Ruan Yuqiu twitched the corner of his mouth, and looked straight at him: "...is it okay?"

His eyes were wide open, the tails of his eyes were round, his long eyelashes were lightly drawn, and he still had a tone of asking for approval.

Jiang Qi's expression didn't change at all, his eyes were still cold and serious, and the corners of his lips were straightened, but the palms that were close to Ruan Yuqiu's skin loosened.

Forget it, he's here, so he won't be at a disadvantage.

The broad palm released his wrist.

Ruan Yuqiu's other hand subconsciously covered the place where he was caught, and he smiled slightly at Jiang Qi.

Then, under the astonished eyes of everyone, he strode towards the main stage.
